I always seemed to have better luck teaching people to keep their lats/back tight with extra pulls.

Don't take this the wrong way but your log pisses me off constantly. I know you can do so much more.

Doesn't sound fun.
Talking to Joe the bodybuilder does though!
If you had this on video, and then still squatted up with the weight on your traps it would go viral I think almost instantly.
All joking aside, keep up the good work. You're lifts will keep increasing as your technique gets better.
It pisses me off to, i snatched 75 at one point with piss poor form, all former snatch PRs were done with so so form. Mark and I are ironing out my form and snatches are going much better. Same with cleans I cleaned 97 at one point. I had a shitty 3 weeks at one point that screwed me up a bit.
Mark and I are working through it. He is not structuring my program other than to tell me when to move from snatches to cleans and when cleans are done (20% of the time here, I don't get in at the same time as him.
Do you mean more in terms of more work? or more weight? I don't take it the wrong way at all.
Take your time, man. As you know, with improvements in technique will come improvements in weight.
And yes, more tightness obtained with snatch pulls.
I know I know. Thanks I have in the past done significantly more snatches than clean and jerks, but have not here recently. I will look to add more snatch pulls in.
Never really heard of a cue for tight lats. Did you find it helped any, or was the weight still too light to give an accurate interpretation?
Also going to eat 64-80 pieces of sushi. Yum.
